What do you get when you mix truffles with hot sauce? Truff gets to the bottom of it.

Since the brand’s inception in December 2017, Truff has become known for its signature hot sauces, oils, mayo, pasta sauces and finishing salt — all of which have a distinct truffle flavor and aroma. Truff has been one of Oprah’s favorite food gifts for years, and this year, she included the Truff Starter Pack in her list of Oprah’s Favorite Things 2022.

“I dare you to find a better hot sauce," she said. "Truff’s black truffle hot sauce is one of the most-used condiments in my house." The Truff Starter Pack includes Oprah's fave black truffle hot sauce, as well as a black truffle-infused oil and a black truffle finishing salt that has actual flakes of truffle.

Oprah is not the only A-lister who loves Truff. Celebrities like Kris Jenner, Lil Jon, Steve Aoki, Pusha T, and Storm Reid have professed their love for Truff, while signature collaborations with buzzy brands like Taco Bell and Hidden Valley Ranch have kept up the hype. Truff has become a TikTok star in its own right, with recipes and tutorials on the hashtag #truffhotsauce racking up more than 46 million views and counting.

When it comes to hot sauces, Truff offers a lot more than the classic black truffle recipe. For a richer flavor profile, try the white truffle hot sauce, which uses white truffles (of course), ripe red chili peppers, and organic agave nectar from Jalisco, Mexico, for a mild sweetness. The brand also makes a hotter version of the signature black truffle and white truffle-infused hot sauces that are packed with more jalapeño and habanero for a self-described "less sweet, more heat" flavor than the original. If you’re looking to boost your pasta nights, the brand also makes a black truffle-infused Arrabbiata sauce and a black truffle-infused Pomodoro sauce—both sold separately or in a duo pack.

The Truff Starter Pack makes a perfect gift for the home cook in your family. Despite the strong flavor of truffle, Oprah swears that Truff pairs well with many dishes, and we agree: it can easily level up foods like vegetables or rice with minimal effort, it's great with omelets and frittatas, or you could add an unexpected truffle twist to burrito bowls and tacos.
